of criminal or disorderly persons, (d) or that any person 
running, employed in or managing such place of business

such license or any of his servants or employes regularly 
employed in or about such business shall have been twice 
convicted of the violation of any of the provisions of this 
ordinance or any ordinance of said city (passed since March 
1, 1904,) regulating the sale or furnishing, or manner of 
sale or furnishing of liquor therein, or the hours of clos- 
ing sucn place or the persons permitted to enter or be in 
such place during certain hours, or any ordinance of said 
city excluding the sale or furnishing of liquor from within 
certain districts or limits of said city. This, however, shall 
not be construed to mean that the same individual shall 
have been twice convicted. 

A petition for such revocation shall be signed by an 
elective officer or officers of said city or by the chief of 
police of said city. 

Upon the filing of such petition the Council shall ap-

journed form time to time but ’said petition must be acted 
upon and said license revoked or said petition denied with- 
in not more than one month after the filing of such peti- 
tion. Denial of such petition shall not be construed to be 
a mar to the consideration of any subsequent petition con- 
taining all or part of the charges contained in a petition 
previously denied, or to the subsequent consideration by 
the Council of evidence relevant to the charge or any 
charge in a petition previously denied. 

A petition filed hereunder shall state one or more or 
all of the grounds hereinbefore specified as grounds for 
the revocation of a license. A ground may be stated in the 
language of this ordinance and the rules of pleading and 
procedure in either civil or criminal actions shall not be 
held to apply to the statement of such charges or any of 
them. 

A copy of such petition shall be served not less than 
two days before the time appointed for hearing the same, 
such service to be made either by a personal delivery of 
such copy to the holder or one of the holders of the license 
sought to be revoked or by delivery of such copy to any 
person or persons in charge of the place of business run 
under said license. 

At the time appointed for such hearing or at such time 
to which it may be adjourned said Council shall hear such 
evidence, either oral or written, as may be produced there- 
alt, and may regulate the order of proof and the introduc- 
tion of evidence and exclude irrelevant, immaterial or in- 
competent testimony or testimony merely cumulative or 
hearsay. Mere informalities or the introduction of evi- 
dence not relevant, competent or material shall not invali- 
date any revocation of a license, and the action of the 
Council on such petition shall be final and conclusive, and 
it shall not be necessary for said Council to find that all 
of the charges in such petition are sustained. 

The action of such Council on said petition shall be 
manifested by resolution of said Council spread upon its 
minutes, and if such resolution state that the license de- 
scribed therein be revoked such revocation shall take ef- 
fect forthwith without further notice to the holder of such 
license and the clerk shall immediately notify the tax col- 


70 


lector oi the passage of such resolution. Absence of the 
holder of any such license from any meeting of said Coun- 
cil at which its revocation may be considered or effected 
snall not invalidate the revocation thereof. 


Sec. 15. Transfer of a liquor license or change of its lo- 
cation, without permission of the Council, shall ipso facto, 
without notice to the holder thereof, entitle the Council 
to pass a resolution revoking and to revoke the same, 
without petition for such revocation. 

lt shall not be mandatory upon the Council to grant any 
application for tne issuance or transfer of any liquor li- 
cense. 


Sec. 16. The sections hereof providing for the revoca- 
tion of licenses shall be construed liberally so as to uphold 
and reserve tne power of said city to regulate liquor li- | 
censes issued thereby. 


Sec. 17. All parts of ordinances in conflict herewith

THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into this seventh

by and between the City of Santa Barbara, a municipal cor- 
poration of the State of California, and the Santa Barbara 
Water Company, a corporation, with its principal place of 
business in said city. 


WITNESSETH: That the agreements herein contained 
are made in consideration of the advantages mutually ac- 
cruing to the parties hereto from the execution hereof, and 


135 


shall be binding upon the parties hereto, their successors 
and assigns. 

The said company hereby grants to said city, rights of 
way through all land owned by said company, either le- 
gally or equitably, or controlled or possessed by it or over 
which it has any easement or right of way and situated in 
the county of Santa Barbara, California, in sections 27, 33 
and 34, Township 5, North of Range 27 West, San Ber- 
nardino Base and Meridian, and the Santa Barbara Mission 
lands in so far as they are owned or controlled by it, on 
such route or routes as the said city may elect to locate, 
construct and maintain: 


(a) A tunnel extending from a point in the N. E. \% of 
the S.-H 44 of Sec. 33; TT. 5 Ni RV2T W.,. 8. Boeing 
northerly direction through the Santa Ynez range of moun- 
tains into the valley of the Santa Ynez river; 


(b) A wagon road to connect the Santa Barbara county 
road in Mission canyon with the portal of said tunnel; 


(c) Pipe lines, or a pipe line to convey water; 
(d) Power lines, telephone and telegraph lines. 


It being understood and agreed that the point of com- 
mencement of said tunnel and the location of said road 
and pipe line or lines shall be defined and marked on the 
ground within twelve months from the date hereof and that 
the location of said power, telephone and telegraph lines 
shall be defined and marked on the ground within twenty- 
four months from the date hereof. 

It being understood and agreed that no road, or pipe 
line, power, telephone or telegraph line shall be so located 
by said city as to interfere with the use, operation, main- 
tenance or repair of any of the water works of said com- 
pany or so as to pass through or across said company’s 
dam on Mission creek or the inclosure containing its reser- 
voir near the Mission of Santa Barbara. 


The foregoing includes the right to use such of said 
company’s land hereafter to be limited and defined at and 
around the portal of said tunnel on the N. E. % of the S. 
BE. %, Sec. 33, T. 5 N., R. 27 W., S. B. M., as is reasonably 
required for a dump or dumps, sheds, tool houses, machine 
shops, storage, bunk and cook houses, and camp for work- 
men and employes; together with such land as may be re- 
quired to construct said tunnel and to operate and main- 
tain it during and after its completion; such dump or 


136 


dumps, sheds, shops, houses and camp to be so located, 
constructed and managed as not to obstruct the flow of 
water in Mission creek and its tributaries, and so as not 
to cause the pollution of its or their waters. And said 
company hereby grants and conveys to said city all of its 
right, title and interest, present and future, in or to all 
water that may seep, flow or percolate into said tunnel, or 
that may be developed by, or in, or carried through said 
tunnel, other than water impounded, stored or developed 
or secured by said company on its lands in the Santa Ynez 
valley, excepting and reserving, however, to said Santa 
Barbara Water company the right to the use of the water 
to be allowed to flow from said tunnel down the channel of 
Mission creek as hereinafter specified and the right to the 
use of all the water seeping, percolating or flowing into 
said tunnel from the formation through which it shall be 
run to an amount sufficient to maintain the flow at said 
company’s point of diversion as hereinafter defined to the 
amount of twenty-two inches continuously during the first 
six months of each year and to the amount of fourteen 
inches continuously during the last six months of each 
year. And said company does hereby, for its successors 
and assigns, agree not to interfere by suit or otherwise 
with the maintenance of said tunnel and appurtenances, 
or the seepage of water thereto, except for specific viola- 
tion of this agreement. 


Said city hereby agrees to supply from the water coming 
into said tunnel from the formation into which it is driven, 
and not otherwise nor from any other source, through an 
automatic or self-regulating appliance, sufficient water to 
maintain the natural flow of said creek, less the quantity 
rightfully diverted above said company’s present point of 
diversion, by riparian or appropriative owners, other than 
said city. Provided, however, that nothing in this agree- 
ment contained shall be construed to require the said city 
to furnish or deliver, or to release or turn out, any more 
water than the quantity actually obtained by said tunnel 
from the formation into which it is or may be driven. 

Owing to the extreme difficulty of determining what is 
the natural flow of said Mission creek during the different 
seasons of the year, a flow maintained continuously at said 
company’s point of diversion of Mission creek on the lands 
of the Mission of Santa Barbara, of twenty-two miner’s 
inches during the period beginning on the first day of Jan- 


137 


uary in each year, and ending on the first day of July, in 
said year; and of fourteen miner’s inches during the period 
beginning on the first day of July in each year, and end- 
ing on the first day of January of the following year, siall 
be taken for all purposes connected with this agreement or 
arising therefrom, or from the construction, maintenance 
or operation of said tunnel so far as the parties to this 
agreement are concerned, as the natural flow of said Mis- 
sion creek. <A ‘“‘miner’s inch”’ shall be held in this agree- 
ment to mean a flow of 12,960 gallons of water in twenty- 
four hours; and said point of diversion shall be deemed to 
be the point of discharge of the pipe at the Old Mission 
dam through which the water diverted from said creek 
is vonveyed into the basin, tank or box at the head of the 
pipe or acqueduct for the conveyance of water to said city 
by said company. 

Said city reserves the privilege at its option to deliver 
at the Old Mission dam—the present place of diversion of 
said company—through its own pipe the quantity of water 
required to maintain said natural flow. 


The appropriative and riparian owners mentioned here- 
in shall not, for the purpose of this agreement, be con- 
strued to include said city. 


Said city also hereby agrees to convey for said Santa 
Barbara Water Company, through said tunnel when com- 
pleted, any water that may be impounded, stored, devel- 
oped or secured by said company on its lands in the Santa 
Ynez valley, to an extent not exceeding the capacity of said 
tunnel not used by said city in the conveyance of its own 
water, the charge therefor to be three cents per thousand 
gallons of said water so conveyed. The right of way for 
the conveyance of which water to the extent and on the 
terms above stated is hereby reserved to said company and 
granted to it. Settlements for said services shall be made 
monthly and shall be based on the amount of water so con- 
veyed in the preceding month, and each party shall have 
the right to maintain a meter or meters, and other meas- 
uring appliances, at either or both portals of said tunnel, 
or at other places mutually agreed upon, and to inspect 
the same, said measuring appliances to be placed where 
directed by said city, and not so as to waste any water. 
And the said city of Santa Barbara hereby conveys to said 
company a right of way for a pipe or acqueduct from said 
company’s lands in the Santa Ynez valley to the northerly 


138 


portal of said tunnel over any lands now owned or con- 
trolled or hereafter to be owned or controlled by said city, said 
right of way to be so located as not to interfere with the 
use, operation, maintenance or repair of any of the water 
works to be constructed on said lands by said city. 


Said company also hereby waives and relinquishes any 
right or rights which it now has or may have to object, by 
suit or otherwise to the taking away of water flowing out 
ot the mouth of said tunnel (other than water which said 
company may be entitled to have) and its application on 
lands neither riparian to said stream nor contiguous to 
said tunnel now owned by said city. 


During the construction of said tunnel through the lands 
of the Santa Barbara Water Company, the water flowing 
therefrom shall not be unduly wasted, but all water not 
utilized by the City of Santa Barbara sha. be turned into 
the creek above said company’s point of diversion, and 
may be used by it, notwithstanding that it may be in excess 
of the 22 inches or the 14 inches stipulated to be main- 
tained as the flow of the creek, at said company’s said point 
of diversion. 


Sec. 3. This ordinance, after its passage and approval, 
shall be published once in The Morning Press, a daily news- 
paper of general circulation printed, published and circu- 
lated in said city, and shall take effect immediately on its 
passage, approval and first publication.
